...﻿CLEAN-India, for a GreenIndia
‘When the last tree is cut and the last fish killed, the last river poisoned, then you will see that you can’t eat money.’
-John May
The CLEAN-India Programme
India has a population of over one billion, of which almost 300 million live in around 600 towns and cities. Unfortunately, as a result of stressed environmental conditions, most of these towns and cities are unable to cope with the rapid pace of urbanisation. Water pollution, unavailability of drinking water, inadequate sanitation, open dumping of waste, and loss of forest cover are some of the related problems. These have serious consequences on the health of the people and are also an economic burden to the country. Similarly, water-borne disease like diarrhoea, jaundice and cholera are taking a heavy toll on both human health and economic productivity.
This situation demands immediate intervention in the management of rapidly growing urban environmental problems. The quality of the environment needs to be monitored regularly and, more importantly, scientific work needs to extend beyond the laboratory and become more community centered. While the regulatory agencies continue to play their role. Programmes that are community based are required. These will help the community understand local issues and take necessary initiatives to improve their local environmental conditions and come...

...﻿cleanliness is the main aspect of environment and our surroundings. It is the major issue which the current generation is facing in a negative way. we as students need to keep our surroundings clean and tidy so that our juniors follow it. first of all we need to start from ourselves saying that charity begins in home. instead of preaching we need to do it as action speaks more than words. it is more in present generation because science has developed so much that it has become a boon and even a curse. when it becomes curse we need to take certain measures to fight against it. we need to create awareness so that all will put a hand in our thought and make it still more come alive. we need to stop all plastics and other polythene bags which pollute our environment. we need to take this issue to the government so that they can take to place where we cannot reach. cleanliness is next to godliness . before going to temple we take bath and we cleanly to the temple so that it is holy place where god resides like that itself our country is refered to as mother india which means that our land is a temple and we need to keep it clean and be ourselves clean. like this even school is referd to lord sarswathi devi so we also need to keep ouselves clean and keep school just like holy place. i think this might give 50% of the essay ashish singh.

MEDICAL USES
Diagnostic Biotechnology Uses
Biotechnology plays a vital part in the diagnostic science, as it uses our knowledge of both DNA and genes to help determine the following.
Determine the sex of an unborn baby
Prenatal Screening, such as screening for Down syndrome.
New-born Screening, used to pick up diseases such as HIV
Presymptomatic testing for adult onset disorders, this includes testing for familial high blood cholesterol.
Conformational testing for diagnosis of symptomatic individuals, with diseases such as Huntingtons Disease.
Forensic or Identity testing, for example examination of semen for sexual offenders and analysis of blood, bone or hair for murder victims.
During diagnostics scientist scan DNA for errors or mutations. Two Techniques are mainly used, the first involves the use of a short strand of DNA know as a “probe” to identify mutations and the second involves the use of genes and comparing it’s sequences to that of a healthy individual.
Therapeutic Biotechnology Uses
Biotechnology contributes to the treatment against disease in two ways, gene therapy and pharmacongenomics.
Gene Therapy involves the treatment of disease by changing the genetic message or instructions of body cells. There are three approaches to gene therapy; replace a faulty gene with a functional one, the ‘knocking out’ of a faulty gene and introducing a new gene into the body to fight...

...betterment of our environment .The green cover is depleting at an alarming rate and the big industrialists and the common man alike, are making all possible efforts to cause as much irreparable damage to the environment , as possible , with each passing year .
We , and our future generations deserve a neat and clean environment .Each one of has a role to play in saving / sustaining the environment .We got to make a start from our homes and work places and actually we can do a lot . All great environmentalists have come out of our own society . They were not of different species , only they thought and worked a bit differently or if I may add, they actually worked for the fulfillment of their dreams .What all can we actually do and are not doing?
Education
Education is the sole solution to most of the problems which plague our nation . It is education or rather lack of it ,which is helping these problems to breed .Citizens , specially the youth got to be educated to work for the betterment of the environment we live in . Innovation has to be brought into the education system to arouse the interest of the students .Parents and Schools have to ensure that maintaining neat and clean environment / surroundings become second nature of the children.Seminars be organised to spread awareness .
Garbage Management
The garbage , right from our homes to the garbage bins in the streets , has to be properly managed ....

Green and Clean Bhutan - A possibility
'Keep Thimphu clean and green'- This is a message that many Thimphu residents read again and again. But, are we anywhere close to it?
Thimphu is definitely not clean. Litters everywhere. Overflowing drains. 40 tonnes of waste a day is a lot - 85% of the waste being recyclable. Overflowing Memelakha. And no proper waste management system in place. A few ideas flung here and there - whether to employ a private firm to manage the wastes dig another landfill or buy an incinerator (which I don't really agree with). Make a decision and at least do something.
Thimphu is not green either. May be a few roofs (I still remember...

...briefly summarising the different solutions to energy storage presented in the text, presenting your view on whether energy storage can be a solution to our current energy problems and providing other solutions to the energy problem, if relevant. Use specific details and examples to help develop your argument.
Green, clean and efficient energy is surely the future, if our planet shall survive for many generations and energy shall become cheaper. The problem of our time lies in the large-scale production of this energy, the ability to store it for the long term and discharge it following high or low need. Especially the storing causes headache, but by big financings of different states and companies, various projects shall be worked out to achieve the aim of clean energy and declare war on atomic energy.
Atomic energy covers the main part of our energy needs, but it is not a clean source and still dangerous as the happenings in Chernobyl and Fukushima clearly show. Moreover, the disposal of radioactive waste is a very expensive endeavor. Green, clean and efficient energy is the future, nevertheless it is still far away from covering our electricity needs. The problem of clean energy plants is, that they are not really efficient and storable, moreover they need to satisfy certain geographical prerequisites. Wind farms, solar fields and pumped storage hydro power stations...

...Utah, USA -- The clean energy economy of the Empire State has just received a serious booster shot, thanks to the newly opened Battery and Energy Storage Technology (BEST) Testing and Commercialization Center in Rochester, New York. Made possible by state seed funding and a public-private partnership between the New York Battery and Energy Storage Technology Consortium (NY-BEST) and DNV GL, the center will serve to address two of the greatest challenges facing New York-based energy storage companies: access to technology and cost.
Until now, energy storage companies in New York have been hampered in their ability to develop and test new technologies because of the high costs associated with delivery of systems for testing in distant geographical areas. By relocating its existing energy storage testing facility in Pennsylvania to New York, DNV GL has eliminated those obstacles.
William Acker, Executive Director of NY-BEST, said the new center will serve not only the numerous existing global energy storage companies already in New York, but will also act as a magnet to attract further investments by clean energy companies seeking growth opportunities.
“This project and our partnership with DNV GL further solidifies New York’s leadership role as a hub for energy innovation,” Acker said. “The new center is part of the state’s ecosystem for clean energy technologies which incorporates world class research institutions, a...
